I bought a calibra turbo

[Bubba]

As title says, bought a calibra turbo cheap. Recently had some pretty ****ty events. Mum passed away from her battle with cancer and left me a bit of money. Missus reckoned that u should finish my pickup since she was always asking how it was going etc so after selling all my xe bits I made an offer on my ex's turbo.

Isn't it... Interesting haha


Is had a lot of money spent on the engine, running silly hp at one point on eds 3.5 and nos. Now on phs1 eds.

I'll be breaking it so will put up a breaking thread when I start stripping it.

Sad to hear of your loss. Good luck with the breaking project.

Hope you see a good return on your investment and do your mum proud and finish that pickup!

Sorry about the loss man. Not fancy putting it back standard looks wise? Potential to be a good one

It has some body electrical gremlins, front strut tops are cracked from it bring on airbags. I'd leave it like that tbh. It's quite a well known calibra down here. Been like this probably for nearly 10 years now, maybe more.

Sorry about your news mate not good that
seen you mention this on Facebook and said how crap they are as a breaker if it was me I'd log onto calibra club list it as rolling shell no engine see if someone wants to take it on as is less hassle and you still get engine

[Bubba]

I've already had people ask about interior, wheels, hubs etc. Probably end up cutting it up :-P

[brainsnova]

Sorry to hear about your mum and sell the engine etc, interior and chop it up

[Bubba]

But I want the engine . It's why I'm getting it. For 1k I can't go wrong tbh

Sad news Bubba, nice that you'll be continuing your build due to your mum It must be hard to get to grips with life after her but keeping the project going in her memory will help I'm sure mate.

Are the airbags still available? Working?
